The Friends of St Michael’s History Group welcomes new members and visitors too. Annual membership is £25 and membership gives you free access to all our talks. Special rates available for a half season. Guests pay £5 on the door for individual talks. All talks take place in St Michael’s and start at 7:30pm. No fee is charged for children under 15.

Visitors are always made welcome. Talks usually last about an hour and are followed by a social gathering and complimentary refreshments.

The History Group of the Friends of St Michael’s are a non-religious group who aim to raise funds to help to keep the Church building and graveyard in a good state of repair.
